Bahamut(bah-hahm-ut) is revered in many locales.Though all good dragons pay homage to Bahamut,gold,silver,and brass dragons hold him in particularly high regard.Other dragons,even evil ones(except perhaps his archrival Tiamat),respect Bahamut for his wisdom and power.
In his natural form,Bahamut is a long,sinuous dragon covered in silver-white scale that sparkle and gleam even in the dimmest light,Bahamut's catlike eyes are deep blue,as azure as a midsummer sky,some say.Others insist that Bahamut's eyes are a frosty indigo,like the heart of a glacier.Perhaps the two accounts merely reflect the platimum Dragon's shifting moods.
Bahamut在许多地方都是被崇敬的对象.....虽然所有的善良龙都对Bahamut抱以敬意，但其中，金龙、银龙和黄铜龙对他则抱持以一种独特且显著的至高尊重.....而其他的龙，甚至是邪龙（或许要除去他最大的的竞争对手邪龙之神Tiamat）也会对Bahamut的智慧与力量表示尊敬.....
以他的自然形态出现时，Bahamut是一条铂金色的身材修长蜿蜒的巨龙.....它浑身上下所覆盖着的银白色鳞片，即使是在微弱的光亮之下依然能反射漂亮的光彩.....Bahamut如猫一般的双眼是深蓝色的，而有人说Bahamut的眼睛就如同的仲夏的天空一样的蓝.....另有些人则坚持说Bahamut的眼睛是冷冷的灰青色，就如同冰河中心的颜色一样.....或许，这两种说法仅仅只是反映出了伟大铂金龙的变换着的心情而已.....
Dogma
bahamut is stern and very disapproving of evil.He brooks no excuses for evil acts.In spite of this,he is among the most compassionate beings in the mutiverse.He has limitless empathy for the downtrodden,the dispossessed,and the helpless.He urges his followers to promote the cause of good,but prefers to let beings fight their own battles when they can.To Bahamut,it is better to offer information,healing,or a(temporary) safe refuge rather often accompany him or one of his avatars.
教义
Bahamut严格地反对任何邪恶事物.....他不能容忍任何邪恶的行径.....除此以外，他就可以算是多元宇宙里最富有同情心的存在了.....他对那些被蹂躏者，被侵略者和无助者抱有着无限的同情.....他督促他的追随者去行善，但他同时也更喜欢凡人们自己去解决自己有能力解决的问题.....对于Bahamut而言，他更喜欢提供线索与信息，医护伤者，或者是一个（暂时性的）避难所，而不是去直接帮助人们面对难关.....
Clergy and Temples
Bahamut has few clerics and even fewer temples,he accepts only good clerics.Clerics of Bahamut,but they dragons,half-dragons,or other beings attracted to Bahamut's philosophy,strive to take constant,but subtle action on behalf of good,intervening wherever they are needed but striving to do as little harm in the process as possible.
Many gold,silver,and brass dragons maintain simple shrines to Bahamut in their lairs,usually nothing more elaborate than Bahamut's symbol scribed on a wall.
牧师与神殿
Bahamut几乎没有牧师，更没有多少神殿.....他只接受善良牧师的侍奉.....Bahamut的牧师大多是龙、半龙，或者是其他被Bahamut的教义所吸引了的生物.....他们居于任何需要他们的地方，毕其一生为善良的利益进行着微妙而精细的斗争，所谓微妙而精细，是指他们努力使自己的斗争尽可能不对尘世造成任何伤害.....
很多金龙、银龙和黄铜龙在自己的巢穴中维持一块供奉着Bahamut的神龛，神龛是很简单的，一般除了精心画在墙上的Bahamut的圣徽之外就没什么了.....
Avatars
Bahamut visits the world often,usually in the guise of an old,old man or callow youth.He is always accompanied by an honor guard of seven great gold wyrms who take the forms of fellow travelers or animals.Bahamut keeps a wary eye out for the machination of Tiamat,taking whatever actions he deems necessary to check the spread of her influence and to undo whatever damage she has done.Bahamut never turns his back on a directly if Tiamat is not involved.Instead,he offers healing,advice,or information.Bahamut is the old hermit whose subtle prophecy unlock a great mystery(provided the players are wise enough to use and recognize the clue),or the kind stranger who offers refuge or that badly needed spell.
Bahamut's wanderings have given rise to many bard's tales,the best known of which relates a roadside meeting with an unassuming old man and his flock of siven trained canaries.None would have been the wiser,say the tale,had a band of ogres let by an ogre mage not swept down upon the crowd.
化身
Bahamut经常以一个老者或是初出茅庐的年轻冒险者的形象出现在凡尘.....每次下凡，一般都有七只年幼的金龙作为光荣的护卫，化作旅行者或是动物的样子跟随保护着他.....Bahamut一向谨慎而小心地预防着Tiamat的诡计，随时准备采取他认为必要行动以控制Tiamat在凡尘的影响，并复原她所造成的损失.....Bahamut从不背弃任何在危险之中的守序善良的生物，但他也很少直接干涉凡尘间的任何事务，除非Tiamat这么干了.....代替干涉，他会以医疗、提供建议以及信息的方式来帮助善良和守序的生物.....Bahamut还是一位能以细致而准确的预言（经常提供线索给那些感知力足够使用和找到这些线索的玩家）揭开诸多事物神秘面纱的老隐者，也可能是一位会提供给玩家一个安全的庇护所或施展玩家需要的法术的好心的陌生人.....
Bahamut在尘世间的巡游成为许多吟游诗人口中吟唱的传说诗篇，其中最著名的莫过于一段一位谦逊的老人和他的七只受过训练的金丝雀在路边指引人们，开导人们的故事.....也没有人知道，即使是一队由一个食人魔巫师领导着的食人魔小队，竟然也没有袭击他们.....
